[Intro]
One, two, get down

[Chorus 1]
Paid the cost to be the boss
Paid the cost to be the boss
I paid the cost to be the boss

[Chorus 2]
Look at me
You know what you see?
You see a bad mother
Look at me
Know what you see?
You see a bad mother

[Chorus 1]
Paid the cost to be the boss
Paid the cost to be the boss

[Chorus 2]
Look at me
Know what you see?
You see a bad mother
Huh
[Bridge]
Huh
Told you so
Told you so
Having fun, got money to burn
Having fun, I got money to burn
Having fun, got money to burn
Having fun, got money to burn

[Chorus 1]
'Cause I paid the cost to be the boss
Paid the cost to be the boss
I paid the cost to be the boss

[Bridge]
Cross the tracks (Uh), turned my back (Uh)
Cross the tracks (Uh), turned my back (Uh)
Paid the cost to be the boss
I'm a bad mother (Huh), I'm a bad mother
Head for the turn around
Head for the turn around
Told you so

[Outro]
Paid the cost to be the boss
